The Theme Building is a structure at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), considered an architectural example of the Space Age design style. Influenced by “Populuxe” architecture, it is an example of the Mid-century modern design movement, later to become known as “Googie”. In 1993, the city designated the exterior and interior of the Theme Building as a historic-cultural monument.

    Looks right out of Logan’s Run (I don’t remember if they used a model of it in the opening scenes).
